This is an anti-hunting book hidden in a children's story. What kind of makes me laugh, though is when the girl gets mad at someone, she gives them the finger, the magic finger. I have been know to do that myself when I got mad.
Her neighbors, two kids about her age and their father were hunting. When they killed some, she yelled at them. She got mad, saw red, and they received the finger. What happens next is pretty hilarious. But anyway, in the end, they do not hunt anymore.
Reading as an adult, you notice an author's agenda. As a kid, I think I might enjoy it, but still be a little confused while I eat my McDonald's hamburger.
